I see. You're differentiating, stereotyping, based on industry instead
of race or creed. Most enlightened of you. If you don't mind, would
you please point out an industry that *doesn't* have a problem?

There is plenty of statistically significant evidence
available on-line if you care to look for it, much of it
from credible sources. It tends to be a few years out of
date but that's the reality of aggregated and quality
controlled data. Here's one example:

and another:

I'm not endorsing Mrs Clean's 99% claim which is clearly
over the top, but evidence of a problem is hard and real.

You're preaching to the choir, brother. As in most everything in life,
there is a small percentage of crooked people that taint any, and
every, industry. It has absolutely nothing to do with the troll
posting, other than being convenient fodder for people without the
creativity to come up with something original.
